Definition of encephalitis in English English dictionary
- Inflammation of the brain
- swelling of the brain, aka sleeping sickness
- inflammation of the brain usually caused by a virus; symptoms include headache and neck pain and drowsiness and nausea and fever (`phrenitis' is no longer in scientific use)
- Inflammation of the brain; may cause permanent damage to the central nervous system and mental retardation
- Infection of the brain

- Swelling of brain; "sleeping sickness"
- swelling of the brain (enkephalos + -itis). Inflammation of the brain, most often due to infection, usually with a virus. One class of encephalitis (including multiple sclerosis) attacks the myelin sheath that insulates nerve fibres rather than the neurons themselves. In most cases, symptoms include fever, headache, lethargy, and coma. Convulsions are most common in infants. Characteristic neurological signs include uncoordinated, involuntary movements and localized weakness. The symptoms and a lumbar puncture (to obtain cerebrospinal fluid for analysis) may establish the presence but not the cause. Treatment usually aims to relieve the symptoms and ensure quiet rest. Various symptoms may remain after recovery
